The Demon Lord of the Outside World

Giant trees stood in a row, like a natural wall, surrounding the market.

Xu Wang walked and strolled along the way, and had already bought a lot of Gu materials, enough to feed the Gu worms on his body for a long time.

In fact, Xu Wang did not need to worry about the problem of feeding the Gu worms. He could directly swallow the Gu worms and imitate them with the Dao Marks from the outer domain. Now buying Gu materials is just to cover himself up.

Xu Wang has been promoted to the second level not long ago. Today, he came to the market with two main goals. One is to find materials to refine his Gu worms and promote some good first-level Gu worms to the second level.

As for the second goal... it is to inquire about information to determine when the current timeline is.

After Xu Wang made inquiries from many sources, he got some news. There was no rumor that the Shangjia City had found a new patriarch's son. Tie Ruonan of the Tie family was now famous, but there was no news about Guyue Village. After all, Qingmao Mountain, where the Guyue Village in the original work was located, could actually be regarded as a remote place. Guyue Village itself was just a medium-sized family. It was naturally difficult to get news from such a long distance.

However, Xu Wang still determined the specific time of the moment. The reason was simple, because there was a person who was already famous in Qingmao Mountain. This person was Bai Ningbing.

In the original work, Bai Ningbing was arrogant and domineering when he was in Baijia Village. He regarded human life as nothing and only pursued fun. A bad reputation was easier to spread than a good reputation. Therefore, Xu Wang knew the existence of Baijia Village even though he was thousands of miles away from Baijia Village.

[According to the information I got, Bai Ningbing became enlightened more than a year ago, and judging by her age, she is about three to four years older than Fang Yuan, so... it may be about a year before Fang Yuan becomes enlightened, and Fang Yuan was reborn not long before he became enlightened...]

This is very bad news for Xu Wang. Although he knows the time point, it is so tight that it is difficult for Xu Wang to make sufficient preparations before the plot begins.

One year...

Thinking of this, Xu Wang couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows. The time of the Gu world is like a river. There will be no parallel worlds such as tributaries due to rebirth. Even if the natives of the Gu world go back to the past through means, they cannot change the predetermined future. Only the existence of a complete extraterritorial demon can change the long river of time into another form like "pollution".

The special nature of the Gu world timeline means that everyone experiences the latest life.

[In a maximum of one year, Gu Yue Fang Yuan will be reborn and reshuffle everything in the Gu world. Everything that happened in the previous life can only be remembered by Gu Yue Fang Yuan...]

[In this case, there will be a great uncertainty. That is, in Fang Yuan's memory of the first life, will there be information about my theoretical future? If Fang Yuan knows it in the first life, after he is reborn, there is a high probability that he will turn me into a resource that can be used and attack me. This is really a huge unknown...]

A lot of information emerged in Xu Wang's head. The ability to play with time is too abnormal. Although Xu Wang himself does intend to keep a low profile, many times plans cannot keep up with changes. Just like before the big competition, Xu Wang just wanted to show his potential a little and remain neutral, but he was directly tied to Xu Ziran's team.

Even if Xu Wang's first life also maintained the same idea and planned to practice in a low profile, but with the layout of God's will and the Venerable, who can guarantee that Xu Wang will not be suddenly involved in an incident? Will Fang Yuan know about that incident? Will Xu Wang be targeted by Fang Yuan?

[Calm down... There is no practical meaning in thinking so much now. No matter what, improving strength is the top priority. ]

After getting rid of the distracting thoughts in his head, Xu Wang re-arranged his goals clearly. At this time, Xu Wang found that he had walked to one of the three-star cave house Gu.

Although there were many people in the three-star cave, the order was still maintained. There were items on the display tables for people to choose from. Compared with the uneven quality outside, most of the items on sale in the three-star cave were valuable Gu worms.

Xu Wang walked among the crowd and found that there were many second-level Gu worms. The three-star cave has three floors. In theory, the value of the goods sold on each floor should be higher. Now there are only second-level Gu worms on the first floor. The goods on it are simply unimaginable.

Looking at the dazzling array of Gu worms on the display stand, Xu Wang did not make any obvious movements. Although most of these Gu worms are practical, Xu Wang now needs some Gu worms that are just needed.

Suddenly, there was a cry of surprise from the corner, attracting the attention of the people present. Xu Wang also turned his head to look over.

There were all kinds of strange stones on a large table in the corner, and at this moment, a Gu Master was holding a ball of soil that had just been opened from a stone, and he was ecstatic.

[It turned out to be gambling on stones. ]

Gambling on stones is an activity that exists even in the Gu world, but the Gu Masters in the Gu world bet on whether there are living Gu worms in the stones. However, this behavior is extremely dependent on luck. Although the gambling stone field where Xu Wang is now is considered medium-sized, the Gu worms that can be opened from the stones are mostly uneven.

Xu Wang walked to the table, picked up a stone and stroked it gently. In the original work, Fang Yuan got a start-up capital by gambling on stones in the early days, but he also relied on his memory before rebirth, otherwise he would lose money in gambling on stones.

The Gu worms wrapped in stones will fall into a deep sleep, so even if the Gu Master uses his true essence to detect, he can't detect anything. Xu Wang narrowed his eyes slightly, urged his true essence to try to sense the stone in his hand, and sure enough, he didn't sense anything.

Suddenly, just as Xu Wang was about to put the stone down, there was a slight reaction in his empty cavity.

[This...! ]

Xu Wang's pupils shrank slightly, and his heartbeat was unusually faster. He was not so excited even when he fought fiercely in the family competition.

The reason is that the outer domain Dao mark in Xu Wang's body reacted!

He tried to activate the true essence again, and Xu Wang sensed through the outer domain Dao mark in his body that there was indeed a Gu worm in the stone, and it was not a dead Gu that had no vitality!

Xu Wang suppressed his shock, thought for a moment, and tried to activate the outer domain Dao Mark, and began to try to let the outer domain Dao Mark devour it like refining a Gu worm.

As the outer domain Dao Mark in the void grew a little stronger, Xu Wang finally confirmed that his outer domain Dao Mark could devour the sleeping Gu worm through the stone wall!

Xu Wang glanced at the thousands of stones on the table, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.
